A Lame Pun Coon post.
The new starter tells the team he left his job at the tax office because it was too taxing. He waits. Nobody laughs. He is absolutely delighted. Your dad, at Sunday lunch: "Past, present and future walked into a bar. It was tense." He's told it every week since you were six. Your mum still sighs on cue. That's love. Your dating app match opens with "Are you a parking ticket? Because you've got fine written all over you." You unmatch. Then you match again, out of respect for the commitment. A boy in chemistry asks if anyone wants to hear a joke about potassium. Then just says "K." The teacher gives him a detention, and repeats it in the staffroom at lunch. **Why it caught on:** a wide-grinning raccoon on a blue colour wheel, popular on Reddit and Tumblr in spring 2010. Bad puns are the only jokes that get better the more people groan, and the raccoon lives for the groan.
